REPAIR OR REPLACE, HONESTLY

Sometimes it is a repair. We will tell you which one it is.

A young roof with one bad valley is a repair. A worn roof with storm damage is not, and patching it can cost you a full replacement your insurance would have paid for.

The problem

A patch on a worn out roof can cost you the whole replacement.

Here is the part most people never hear. A lot of roofing companies default to a patch because it is a fast sale. But once a worn roof has been repaired, a carrier can point at that repair later and argue the damage was addressed.

That is a real risk on a roof that was already close to the end. We would rather tell you that up front than take the easy job.

Honesty about repair versus replace.

What you get

Everything below is part of the job.

  • Leak diagnosis on the roof

    We find where the water is actually getting in, which is rarely where the stain is.

    Included
  • Photo documentation

    You see what we see.

    Included
  • Written report the same day

    Including how much life the rest of the roof has.

    Included
  • Flashing, boot, and valley repair

    The usual suspects, done properly.

    Included
  • Shingle replacement and reseal

    Matched as close as the age of the roof allows.

    Included
  • Honest repair versus replace call

    If a repair is throwing money at a roof that is done, we say so.

    Included
  • Storm damage check while we are up there

    If it is claimable, we will tell you.

    Included
  • Cleanup

    Every visit.

    Included

How it goes

From your first call to the final sweep.

  1. Tell us where the water shows up

    A ceiling stain, a drip in the garage, a spot on the sheathing in the attic.

  2. We get on the roof and find it

    Then we hand you a written report with the photos.

  3. It gets fixed, or you get the truth

    A repair if it makes sense. A claim conversation if it does not.

The difference

Why this goes differently with us.

What usually happens

  • Caulk on the leak and a handshake.
  • A repair quoted on a roof that is finished.
  • Storm damage never mentioned.
  • No paperwork.

What we do

  • Find the source, fix the assembly, document it.
  • We tell you when a repair is a waste of money.
  • We check for it and tell you if it is claimable.
  • A written report you keep.

He has been very communicative and worked with our insurance directly to get our roof claim approved. We came home to minimal clean up.

Do not sit on this

Waiting is the expensive option.

  • A small leak is cheap. Wet decking and mold are not, and neither one shows up on a schedule that suits you.

  • If the leak started with a storm, the claim window matters. {{VERIFY: typical claim filing window for Ohio carriers}}
